Former Cuomo aide accused of bribery, extortion and fraud

After jurors in the federal corruption trial of a former aide to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo declared for a second time they were deadlocked Monday, raising the prospect of a mistrial, the judge overseeing the case ordered them to continue deliberating.

The 12-person jury in the case of the former aide, Joseph Percoco, said in a note to the judge on Monday morning in federal court in Manhattan that they couldn’t reach a unanimous verdict in the trial.
